    Black infants in America are now more than twice as likely to die as white infants — a racial disparity that is actually wider than in 1850, 15 years before the end of slaveryhttps://nyti.ms/2JF1UCk

        I don’t think this is a race issue but a class issue, it is unfortunate but you get better service when you pay more for it. But no mother deserves ignored like that and that doctor should have his license pulled.

        Its both race and class but mainly race. A college educated black woman is still 2-3 times more likely to die during child birth than a white woman with a high school diploma or less. In New York Black women are 12 times more likely than whites to due during childbirth.

        That is a shocking and sad fact, and one of those women’s stories is what @nytimes should have covered.Reading this it sounds more like a Medicaid issue. Regardless I feel nothing but sorrow for this mother. The blame lays at every nurse and Dr that checked her BP! Easy Dx!

        @therealkittycox from the above article: "...a black woman with an advanced degree is more likely to lose her baby than a white woman with less than an eighth-grade education." We have to be careful about minimizing racism. It is deeper and more real than most of us understand.

        And lets not forget Erica Gardner died from deliver complications within 1 year after giving birth to her daughter. Racism killed not only her father but it killed her too. 2 institutions in this country built from and maintained by racism. Police and Medical Practices

        @therealkittycox NPR actually covered a story on a black women who had a PhD researching this disparity who ended up dying from childbirth as well. So it definitely a race issue when even with all the research and precautions she took she still died 😢https://www.npr.org/2017/12/07/568948782/black-mothers-keep-dying-after-giving-birth-shalon-irvings-story-explains-why …

        Yup. And the research behind it, as I have been doing for years. You’re in over your head if you’re planning to us a “pull yourselves up by the bootstraps” argument on me regarding this topic.

        Do you have a heart? Black Women are 6x more likely 2 DIE in childbirth in Michigan. Ask women 4 their testimonies. They kick us out of the hospitals too soon! They don’t allow you to change doctors if U feel yr OB-GYN is not attentive- THIS IS WITH GOOD INSURANCE THROUGH YR JOB!

        Do I have a heart? Yes, I have a heart. It’s a very sad story. But you’re saying she lost her child because she was black? Black women get kicked out of hospital’s sooner because they’re black? She was in an abusive relationship b/c she was black? I don’t have to agree with it.
